Crews all parking up looking for any shade due to the heat. Ingram will be suffering in his black 'batmobile' ...

Italian crews quite slow in the first run. Let's see how it's in next run and the QS.
Gryazin fastest in Qualifying, just 0.1s ahead of Lukyanuk.
Magalhaes 7th & Andreucci only 8th.
Lukyanuk, Yates and Ahlin too...Quote:

Note to WRC TV producers: R5 cars don’t have to look boring.
With his condition, and in this heat, if the old guy holds until the end, it will be a miracle.....Quote:

EDIT - He hasnt competed WITH Andreucci since 1993.
If I undestand Italian correctly, there will be an online streaming from the first stage "ACI Roma Arena" on the website of Acisport today at 18:25.
If someone has access to the Italian TV Rai Sport - there will be a report from the first stage today at 22:15.
There will also be some reports on Sport Italia and AutoMoto TV.

Starting order:
http://www.rallydiromacapitale.it/do...e&orderTC0.pdf
Stewards decision 1, they decide to withdrawn 39 points to Diogo Gago for being not in Roma and runing in Spain the 208 rally cup
http://www.rallydiromacapitale.it/do...a_erc_2018.pdf
That's very stupid...
Yeah... do they think it will encourage him do continue the championship? :/
Andreucci chose to drive first on the Saturday's stages:
https://www.fiaerc.com/italian-legen...o-rome-battle/
"Starting behind Andreucci on Saturday morning is ERC championship leader Bruno Magalhães. He chose to start high up the order after struggling with loose gravel being swept onto Thursday’s Qualifying Stage, going only seventh quickest..."Quote:

Ahlin oh my... ha ha !!
Says car is RWD only.. that explains it.
For a street stage I quite enjoyed that..
And the top Italians were spectacular. They almost make their cars dance.
Gryazin fastest and is a top form. He could challenge for the win here.
Ok that the car is RWD but losing 10 seconds on a 1.8 km stage is huge and it still doesn't explain all the others that are losing the same or more... I was expecting pretty much all the R5 drivers within 5 seconds more or less.Quote:

Taking 39 points (Gago Açores win) for an administrative error looks totally unpropotional and should be rectified.
SS2 Slow start by Magalhaes.
did you expect to win the stage?Quote:
